PRODUCT OVERVIEW

MTXDOT Developer Guide 7
Chapter 1 – Product Overview
Overview
The MultiConnect xDot (MTXDOT) is a LoRaWAN
TM
, low-power RF device, capable of two way communication over
long distances, deep into buildings, or within noisy environments
*
using the unlicensed ISM bands in North
America, Europe and worldwide. The xDot is a compact surface-mount device with an mbed enabled processor and
enhanced security. The xDot features an integrated ARM
®
Cortex
®
-M3 processor and mbed
TM
compatible software
library for developers to control, monitor and bring edge intelligence to their Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
*
Actual distance depends on conditions, configuration, antennas, desired throughput, and usage frequency. In
dense urban environments, a typical range is 1-2 miles.
What's New in Firmware Version 3.1
The new release includes the following changes:
xDot Bootloader
Power Optimization
Other Enhancements
xDot Bootloader
The xDot bootloader allows firmware upgrades via ymodem over either the command or debug serial ports. For
details, refer to Updating Firmware Using the xDot Bootloader.
Power Optimization
To reduce power consumption during Class A transactions, Version 3.1 firmware includes a new auto sleep feature.
When enabled, the microcontroller automatically goes into a stop sleep mode after an uplink transmit ends and in
between two receive windows. In the stop sleep mode, RAM and register contents are retained, but all peripheral
clocks are gated, so timers will not count during these intervals. Refer to the microcontroller datasheet for
information regarding microcontroller sleep mode states.
New AT Command: +AS - Auto Sleep
Other Enhancements
Adaptive Data Rate (ADR) is now enabled by default.
Public Network command, +PN, has been updated to include an MTS network in addition to the LoRaWAN
public or private network options. This includes changes to parameter values. Refer to the +PN command in
S000643 DOT Series AT Command Reference Guide for details.
For an archive of release notes, go to Appendix A.
Documentation Overview
This manual is one part of xDot documentation. Refer to the Related Documentation and mbed sections for
additional information needed to program your xDot and integrate your application with the MultiConnect Conduit
gateway.

Chapter 2 – Getting Started
Getting Started with the xDot Developer Kit
Getting started depends on what you want to do. By default, xDot ships with firmware that supports AT
Commands that use the serial I/O. For AT Commands, refer to the separate MultiConnect Dots AT Command
Reference Guide.
Two serial interfaces are available through the USB interface, one is used to send AT commands to the xDot and
the other is for debug messages. Refer to Chapter 4, Specifications and Pin Information for information on which
pins are available out of the box.
Before starting your project development, make sure you have the latest firmware for the Developer Kit and xDot.
Go to the xDot mbed page for firmware. https://developer.mbed.org/platforms/MTS-xDot-L151CC/
To send commands to the xDot:
1. Plug the developer board into a USB port.
2. Open communications software, such as TeraTerm, Putty, or Minicom.
3. Set the following:
Baud rate = 115,200
Data bits = 8
Parity = N
Stop bits = 1
Flow control = Off
To develop using mbed, the xDot mbed page includes libraries and test cases. Refer to mbed Documentation for
details and links.
For help setting up a MultiConnect
®
Conduit
™
to send data to and from an xDot, refer to Related Documentation .
COM Port Enumeration by Operating System
xDots create an AT Commands port and a debug port.
Linux
The following COM ports are created on Linux systems:
/dev/ttyACMx
/dev/ttyACMy
Where x and y may be 0 and 1, 3 and 4, etc.
The COM port with lower number is the AT command port and COM port with the higher number is the debug
port.
Windows
On Windows systems, COM ports appear in the Device Manager:
Debug Port: mbed Serial Port

Battery Draw Down
xDot battery life depends on many variables, including transmit power, data rate, sleep usage, and duty cycle. The
following figure represents the current consumption in one possible application.
Use the current consumption values from the following Electrical Characteristics table when calculating average
power consumption.
Electrical and Timing Characteristics
Note:
All measurements taken at VDD = 3.3 V and 25 degrees Celsius ambient temperature unless
otherwise specified.
Refer to the ST Micro STM32L151CC datasheet for more detailed processor IO characteristics.
Signal Description Conditions Min Typical Max Units
VCC Operating Voltage 2.4 3.3 3.57 V
Vin Low IO input low level -- -- 0.3V * VDD V
Vin High IO input high level 0.45 * VDD + 0.6 V
Vout Low IO output low level Pin current = 8mA - 0.4 V
Vout High IO output high level 2.7V < VDD < 3.6V VDD - 0.4 V
Vout Low IO output low level Pin current = 20mA -- 1.3 V
